New Super Mario Bros. Wii completed in 29,100 points [TAS]

Updated TAS to include the recent 5-Ghost house strategy. :)
Long sections of waiting have been cut out for your viewing convenience.
Ironically, this TAS is actually slightly slower at every part of the run that actually matters if this were to be timed like a real speedrun. However, I hope that some of the faster individual level strats make up for some of the unfortunate slower "strategies" in other places :(
Also, you can complete this run in 0 points using the super guide but it's incredibly boring and uninteresting so I banned its usage.
Side note:
For those wondering why I hesitated to enter the toad house door, it was because of RNG. Unfortunately I couldn't find a fast strat that manipulated it. I tried over 100 times to find something faster but every time it gave me one of the unfavorable maps. It seemed to be consistent with the amount of frames that you waited to open the door so unfortunately I had to waste some time here.

I think, for Ceave, it would be NSLU low score, and for Mayro, it would be a challenge run, but otherwise, I agree!

So many clutch jumps honestly.

Probably not. Some major breakthrough would have to happen like the ability to skip levels or bosses

[@PhantomAarantula]

You can kill the boos with the propeller? That's so cool

[@milu9080]

love how the bot just styles on everything

[@Sully_2345]

Realizing now, if you use the super guide at 5-Tower after losing 8 lives in a row, you can remove the 8,000 points from Iggy

[@Elomavi]

This is a good idea! I will test this later today and share my results

[@Elomavi]

Yeah, you can use the Super guide to skip the points on any level, essentially bringing the total number of points down to 0 for every level. Only downside is that you can't collect the star coins with the super guide. This does trivialize a large portion of the game and most would call it a cheap workaround but it does lower the total point count.

[@VincentLajoie]

Maybe weird question: since the completion time for each level is basically already set because of the 0 second requirement, wouldn't you theoretically be able to save some frames by waiting before entering pipes in some levels, considering how the timer works with screen transitions? I'm basing this on watching the video and my knowledge of SMB so it may be wrong, but: when you enter a pipe, no matter how far into the in-game second you are, the second starts again from the top after the screen transition. So, let's say the fastest possible completion of the first part of a level has you enter a pipe 80% into second 200. If the level started at 500, and only has one screen transition, it means you spent seconds 500 through 201 plus 80% of 200, then 200 again, for a total of 500.8 in-game seconds. However, if you instead wait until the first frame of second 199, you only spend 500 through 200, then 199~1 plus one frame, for a total of 500 and one frame. So there are a few possibilities: 1. This doesn't actually save any time (is there a framerule-like mechanic in this game?) 2. It's something you haven't considered (or you did and I just didn't notice somehow) 3. I misunderstand how the timer works Either way, I also want to say: awesome work! This is an awesome video to watch

[@Elomavi]

That's a good idea! However, the in-game timer in this game doesn't work the same way as it does in the original SMB. The in-game timer is preserved between rooms and won't automatically decrement when you exit the pipe. If the timer did work like in SMB then you're right; it would actually save time to enter the pipe at the beginning of the second. As far as I'm aware, there's no way to speed up the in-game timer at all. Also, it turns out that there is no framerule-like mechanic in this game so every frame saved in a level counts. I'm glad you enjoyed it! I can't believe it's been 3 years already 🙃

Since when was 14:36 ever a thing in the game? Why though?

[@MannifyYT2024]

If an FNF player thought they were playing FNF but instead were playing nsmb wii 5-tower would be pretty accurate

[@bikr2381]

Feels like it was was frame perfect

[@meta04]

well, each level completion (except 8-A and 8-C) is frame-perfect: 1 frame earlier, and you get 50 points from the timer; 1 frame later, and time's up (also if you get the 000 frame in multiplayer the game softlocks)

[@davyjones3105]

Hey- Is there any reason why you can’t wait for the timer to hit 000 in the final level like in the other levels? Wouldn’t waiting a bit longer make it 29050?

[@parencolonthree]

not possible

[@davyjones3105]

@@parencolonthree ok

[@Elomavi]

Hitting the switch the same frame the timer hits 000 will result in Mario getting 8000 points from the switch but then immediately dying.

[@briban65]

what points do you get if you kill bosses with fire

[@Elomavi]

Same as the normal amount, killing enemies with fire does the same amount of damage as stomping on them.

after 3 years, just wondering if there had been any improvements? (like airship and bowser timers and boss battle scores)

Because if they didn't, 1000 points would have been awarded upon touching the flagpole since all enemies on screen when ending a level gives points.
